Description
A flattish pool leading up to a horizon line spit by a shallow midstream rock.
The bottom left of this drop features a pretty nasty undercut.
Most people run right of the center rock for that reason. On the right side aim for the middle where there is a break in the hole at the base of the slide. At higher flows (700 cfs) the hole at the base of the slide gets pretty beefy. The break in the hole is still there, but being off line will lead to a surf. I've seen three boaters getting surfed in the hole at once. On Sundays there is a sneak far river right thru the trees.
